Dr. Smita Singh is an educator and consultant who holds a PhD and has more than 15 years of experience in environmental management, sustainability frameworks and ISO standards auditing. Her auditing work spans ISO 14001, ISO 14064 and ISO 9001, and she has guided organisations in implementing ISO-compliant sustainability systems, climate accountability practices and environmental impact assessments. Her background in environmental monitoring, pollution control, waste management and green certification means she understands the operational realities behind environmental aspects, compliance obligations and audit evidence. She has also carried out internal auditing and quality assurance work for public and private sector projects. An ACLP-certified corporate trainer, lecturer and assessor and an experienced WSQ trainer, she runs sessions that highlight real-world case studies and applied auditing techniques, so participants gain both technical knowledge and practical audit readiness. She has advised both private and public organisations on achieving compliance and sustainability goals, and brings a scientific, evidence-based perspective to judging whether environmental controls are genuinely effective rather than simply documented.

In WSQ ISO 14001:2015 Internal Auditor Training, Dr. Smita prepares learners to audit an Environmental Management System with confidence and objectivity. She sets out the internal auditor framework, introducing the International Professional Practices Framework (IPPF) alongside ISO 14001:2015, and shows how the standard applies to an organisation's risks, objectives, resources and operations. Drawing on her auditing experience, she then walks participants through internal audit methodologies and procedures, the phases of an audit and effective engagement with stakeholders at each stage. In the risk assessment topic, learners practise conducting risk assessments, writing clear and effective corrective action requests and preparing audit reports that management can act on. Her environmental monitoring and pollution control background helps learners judge the significance of findings in context rather than simply ticking boxes. She also shares practical techniques for preparing audit checklists, sampling records, interviewing personnel and verifying operational controls on site, so that learners gather objective evidence and present findings in a fair, constructive and professional manner. Participants leave ready to plan and conduct ISO 14001 internal audits that strengthen environmental performance and compliance.

He has more than 30 years of experience in quality assurance and reliability across the semiconductor, electronics and equipment manufacturing industries, where he held key roles such as ISO Management Representative, Lead Auditor and Manager, including system auditing, quality engineering and regulatory compliance in multinational firms across Asia.

He also conducts in-house training on APQP, FMEA, DOE, 5S and problem-solving tools.

In WSQ ISO 14001:2015 Internal Auditor Training, Eddy leverages his audit experience to train participants in the principles and practice of environmental management system auditing. Learners review the International Professional Practices Framework (IPPF) and apply ISO 14001:2015 to an organisation's risks, objectives, resources and operations, then work through internal audit methodologies, audit phases and stakeholder engagement. The final topic covers risk assessment, writing effective corrective action requests and preparing audit reports. With a focus on audit methodology, evidence-based assessment and non-conformance management, learners gain both technical proficiency and confidence in conducting environmental audits.

A CQI/IRCA-certified ISO 45001 Auditor and an experienced ISO 14001 auditor, he previously served as Deputy Director at the Housing & Development Board, overseeing large-scale sustainability, energy management and GreenGov.SG initiatives. He is also an adjunct lecturer and consultant for TÜV SÜD and Singapore Polytechnic, delivering corporate training on ISO 41001, ISO 14064, ISO 50001 and sustainability reporting.

In WSQ ISO 14001:2015 Internal Auditor Training, Stanley blends his real-world sustainability expertise with auditing discipline to help participants master the evaluation of environmental management systems. Learners begin with the International Professional Practices Framework (IPPF) and the ISO 14001:2015 EMS, applying the standard to an organisation's risks, objectives, resources and operations. They then study internal audit methodologies and procedures, the phases of auditing and engagement with stakeholders, before conducting risk assessments, writing effective corrective action requests and preparing audit reports. His facilitation emphasises audit planning, risk assessment and performance measurement within the context of corporate ESG frameworks and Singapore's green transition goals, so learners audit with purpose as well as rigour.

He holds a master's degree in Operations Research and Industrial Engineering from Cornell University.

In WSQ ISO 14001:2015 Internal Auditor Training, Herk Low integrates strategic management and environmental responsibility to give learners a systematic approach to auditing. Participants review the International Professional Practices Framework (IPPF) and the ISO 14001:2015 EMS, applying it to an organisation's risks, objectives, resources and operations, then study internal audit methodologies, audit phases and stakeholder engagement. They conduct risk assessments, write effective corrective action requests and prepare audit reports. His sessions highlight sustainability leadership, risk-based thinking and continuous improvement, empowering participants to align environmental compliance with corporate sustainability objectives.

In WSQ ISO 14001:2015 Internal Auditor Training, Khiang Meng guides participants through the full audit cycle, from planning and documentation review to evidence evaluation and reporting. Learners begin with the International Professional Practices Framework (IPPF) and the application of ISO 14001:2015 to an organisation's risks, objectives, resources and operations, then study internal audit methodologies, audit phases and stakeholder engagement, before conducting risk assessments, writing corrective action requests and preparing audit reports. His approach emphasises practical application, attention to detail and continuous performance improvement, so participants leave able to contribute effectively to their organisation's EMS audit programme.
